About Neurorex PG Capsule

Neurorex PG Capsule is used for the management of neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or a malfunctioning nervous system. Symptoms of neuropathic pain include shooting, and burning pain followed by tingling and numbness (loss of sensation). Neuropathic pain can be caused by amputation of limbs, diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to excess blood sugar level), excessive alcohol intake (alcoholism) and cancer treatment via chemotherapy.

Neurorex PG Capsule is a combination of five drugs: Pregabalin (anticonvulsant), Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12), Benfotiamine (vitamin B1), Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and Folic acid (vitamin B9). Pregabalin affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals to the nervous system, thereby relieving nerve pain and lowering the risk of seizures (fits). Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine help rejuvenate and protect damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Benfotiamine and Folic acid help deliver essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, Neurorex PG Capsule provides relief from neuropathic pain.

In some cases, Neurorex PG Capsule may cause side effects like dizziness, sleepiness, tiredness, nausea and vomiting. Most of these side effects of Neurorex PG Capsule do not require medical attention and resolve over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Please do not stop taking Neurorex PG Capsule without consulting your doctor, as it could cause withdrawal symptoms. Consult your doctor before taking Neurorex PG Capsule if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Neurorex PG Capsule may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Neurorex PG Capsule should not be given to children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Neurorex PG Capsule as it could lead to increased dizziness and drowsiness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and the medicines you are taking to rule out any side effects.
